SYNOPISIS:

Ukulele virtuoso Daniel Hoʻs journey is a testament to the power of music as both heritage and invention. Born and raised in Hawaii, Danielʻs earliest memories blend surf boards and slack-key guitar. Daniel was shaped by a tragic childhood loss, a single fatherʻs unwavering support, and a relentless drive to compose his own destiny. From his first Grammy win for “Best Hawaiian Music Album” to the bitter backlash questioning his roots, Daniel has weathered rejection, embraced independence and reimagined Hawaiian music as a global language.
